Chapter 240 - DIRECTING A PLAY

After several months of being together, from being his personal sleeping pill to being an official girlfriend and wife, it was the first time that Cayenne slept without Stefan.

He left last night after she fell asleep and there was no fixed date as to when he could come back home. She wasn\'t worried being alone but she was worried for him. After all, she wasn\'t sure if Stefan will be able to sleep without her beside him. \'I hope he\'ll be fine.\' Cayenne thought as she got out of bed.

Stefan left her a note containing several reminders for her to make sure that she\'s fine. It includes about her meals and other stuff which he always kept in mind when he was still around. She prepared for work and made sure that she\'s not forgetting anything before leaving.

"I\'m off to work now." Cayenne sent muttered while typing the same words and sent it to his account. Whether he read it or not, she won\'t mind. She understood that he\'s a very busy person.

She went to work like usual but she noticed that her colleagues were looking at her from the moment she stepped inside the hotel. \'It must be about the marriage news with Stefan. Should I still cover it?\' She asked herself as she strode towards the employee\'s lounge to put her things inside her locker.

Luna was already inside, cleaning her locker and disinfecting it. The moment she saw Cayenne, her eyes lit up. "Yenyen! You\'re finally back! How was your vacation?"

Cayenne scratched the tip of her nose, looking bashful and shy from the hot gazes of everyone. It was so obvious that they were waiting for something to gossip from her.

"It was okay. I had so much fun." Cayenne responded while opening her locker. "I brought souvenirs for you." She handed Luna a shopping bag which contain two small boxes from a famous brand. "The other box if for Ali."

"Oh. Thanks for this." Luna placed the bag inside her locker and locked it before turning to Cayenne again. "I didn\'t wait for the souvenir, though. I\'m waiting for the news that you wanted to say. So?"

"Uh…Can we talk about it during break. I\'ll find a place for us to talk about it."

"Sure. I don\'t mind. Let\'s go and log in for the day." Luna pulled her best friend after Cayenne locked her own locker. They were about to leave the lounge when someone came inside with a basket of chocolates and a small pink teddy bear in the middle of the knick-knacks. There was a bouquet of pink tulips as well.

"Yen, someone asked me to give this to you." Her colleague handed Cayenne the basket and the flowers. "Must be from your boyfriend." She teased her which made Cayenne blush.

Actually, Cayenne thought the same. She expected that it came from Stefan. Apparently, it was not. There was no name of the sender but there was a note left among the chocolates in the basket.

\'Please press the small heart on the bear\'s chest.\' Cayenne read the letter and followed the instruction as well. There was a soft sound coming from the bear. It was so soft and low that she almost missed the words.

\'Why do I have to dress up when it will just waste my time? Someone would still take my place and take your hand.\'

\'Why do I need to give you roses when many men offer them to you?\'

\'I\'d rather stay and wait, while singing this song to you – " The song continued while memories flashes back in her mind.

Cayenne was very familiar to these words because she received similar written lyrics several years ago. It was a song dedicated to her but during those times, she was too focused with Arthur that she neglected other people\'s feelings. She still made friends with the sender but she made it clear to him that she won\'t be affectionate to him like what couples do.

"Is he back?" Cayenne whispered while the low music continued to play. At the end of the song, there was a short message that made Cayenne smile.

\'This song is for the strong woman who saved me in my darkest days.\'

If she was still doubtful earlier, this time, she knew that Seiji really came back. She\'s happy that her friend still remembers her but she was also a bit worried – worried that the man might still have feelings for her.

"Cayenne? Who sent you these?" Luna asked when she noticed that she was silent while staring at the small bear.

"It\'s from one of my friends back in high school."

"Oh. Is he one of your suitors?"

"Nope." Cayenne responded almost instantly. She lied to her because she knew that Luna would tell Stefan about it. She didn\'t want it to come from another person. She wanted to tell Stefan herself about the things she received today.

Luna logged in for work and Cayenne was following next to her – feeling a bit apprehensive and nervous for no reason. Her palms were even sweating coldly but she had no idea why she was feeling nervous.

"Yen, are you alright? You look pale. Is there something wrong?" one of her colleagues asked when she saw caught sight of Cayenne\'s pale lips.

"I\'m fine. Sorry to worry you." Cayenne smiled faintly and she was about to type her credentials when she received a call from Luiz.

"Yen! Yen, come to the hospital right now. Mama is in critical condition."

The things that she was holding fell on the floor and she gave up typing her credentials anymore. "Cayenne, where are you going? Wait up." Luna picked up the basket and the bouquet and chase after Cayenne who went to the lounge. When she got there, Cayenne was also on her way to leave the place. "Yen, what\'s going on?"

"I don\'t have time to tell you. I need to go now. Sorry." Cayenne left with tears blurring her vision. She had a bad feeling with the call and she had no idea what to do.
